Chapter 543: Going to the mine to dig coal?
Nowadays, taking a train is definitely not a pleasant experience.
The same applies to the high-ranking officials' carriage.
After all, the space is limited and there is no bathroom inside, so you still have to go out if you want to go to the toilet.
Washing is also inconvenient.
But compared with other passengers, Yi Chichi and her friends enjoyed such good treatment.
The meals were delivered to the carriage by the conductor who had been notified by Gu Xinghua, and there was no shortage of hot water.
Therefore, when they arrived at the Beijing Station, Yi Chichi and the others did not look too embarrassed.
The old man, dressed in casual clothes, and the guard, who had also changed out of his military uniform and was now dressed in casual clothes, came to the platform in person to pick up the passengers.
The old man and the young man waited on the platform for a few minutes. Then a sharp whistle was heard, and then the train roared into the station, and then the speed gradually decreased.
The old man's eyes suddenly lit up, "Xiao Ding, is this the car Xiao Jiu and the others are in?"
"Yes chief."
Security guard Ding Changwei, who checked the train entry information, gave a positive answer.
"Be prepared to meet you at the station. Go up and help carry the luggage as soon as possible."
Based on his understanding of his eldest niece and the eldest sister of the Wen family, they would never argue when it comes to the ways of the world.
This is the case even for strangers, let alone for them.
Therefore, he dared to judge that they must have brought a lot of things.
"Okay chief."
Ding Changwei, who knew the train information of Yi Chichi and his group, as well as the carriage information, agreed immediately and rolled up his sleeves, ready to rush up and find the people as soon as the train arrived at the station, stopped and opened the door, and then become a mature porter.
It was a good plan, but Yi Chichi and the others didn't need their help at all.
Because Yi Chichi was lazy, he didn't go through the door, but came out directly from the window and stood on the platform to take the luggage that Qin Jiu handed over.
Wen's mother carried Wen Yi out the door.
The two men who noticed that the family had split up came over after two seconds of silence.
"Big sister, thank you for your hard work along the way!"
"Comrade, let me do it."
Two voices sounded at the same time.
When Mother Wen heard the familiar voice, she looked over and was immediately happy to see Old Man Qin. "Brother, long time no see. This is your nephew Dazhong. Do you want a hug?"
As she spoke, she handed Wen Yi over.
The old man looked at Wen Yi, who was looking at him curiously with his big black eyes, and smiled brightly, "Yi Yi, Grandpa, give me a hug?"
He stretched out his hand tentatively towards Wen Yi. The kid was not shy at all and had no sense of strangeness towards the old man. He readily opened his arms and rushed over.
At this time, Yi Chichi, after thanking Ding Changping who came to his side, gave up his seat and handed over the job of receiving the luggage.
"Aunt, this is the last one, you take it."
With someone to help him, Qin Jiu was full of energy. He handed out luggage one by one and gave the last one directly to Yi Chichi.
As soon as she reached out to take it, he swiftly climbed out of the car window.
Standing in front of Ding Changping, he smiled and called out, "Uncle Ding."
"I've grown taller and gained weight..."
Ding Changping's unfinished words turned into shock when he saw Qin Jiu's skin color, "Why is your face so dark?"
Are you going down to the mine to dig coal?
"Very dark?"
Qin Jiu touched his face and turned to look at Yi Chichi inquiringly.
"black."
Yi Chichi is also helpless about this. The ultraviolet rays on the island are higher than inland, especially in summer, because the sun's direct angle is large and the ultraviolet radiation is stronger.
Qin Jiu is a person who doesn't like to wear a hat to protect himself from the sun, and he doesn't have any sunscreen now. It was fine earlier, but in the last period of time, he went out with Yuanchu and the others every day and was exposed to the sun. The fact that he only got tanned but not sunburned is a gift from God.
"It's okay, I'll be back soon."
Just then, the old man and Wen's mother brought Wen Yi over.
Hearing her words, the old man immediately said, "A real man is not afraid of black spots, but it is really terrible to have no ability and no ambition."
Yi Chichi called him grandpa, and Qin Jiu pouted, "I just came back and you taught me, am I still your great-grandson?"
"That must be the case. You and Yi Yi are the same. Grandpa loves you both!"
The old man, who has few relatives, is not stingy with his love for the few relatives he has, and expresses it very directly. However, the platform with people coming and going and noisy is indeed not a good place to talk.
So, after a brief chat, the group left the station with their luggage.
After the old man was reinstated, he was not only compensated for several years of salary, but also provided with a car.
He also lives in a detached house in the compound.
It is summer vacation now, and Mr. Song and his colleagues, who have returned to the school to work, are on vacation together with the students. So when Yi Chichi and the others arrived at the compound, the old man and his colleagues were already waiting at the Qin family.
Before the car stopped, several people who heard the sound of the car came out of the house.
Yi Chichi happily leaned out of the car window and waved to them, "Grandpa Song, Grandma Song, and Grandpa Ma, good afternoon."
"Good good."
The three old people were grinning from ear to ear. They were naturally happy to meet Yi Chichi and the others. What made them even happier was that they finally saw Wen Yi, whom they had been thinking about for a long time.
"Hurry, hurry, show us the child."
"My brother is so handsome."
The conspicuous Qin Jiu entered the brother-control mode. After getting out of the car and entering the house, he praised Wen Yida a lot.
The old people nodded and circled around Wen Yi. One touched his little hands, another pinched his fat arms that looked like lotus roots, and then gave fair comments.
"This kid is strong and healthy. He is well taken care of."
As soon as Mr. Song said this, Mr. Ma immediately looked at him, "Why, are you thinking about that ungrateful kid of yours again?"
The older the friends, the more they know how to hurt you.
Yi Chichi watched as Mr. Song's face darkened. He wanted to comfort him but couldn't speak, so he could only change the subject, "Grandpa and grandma, I brought you gifts."
"What gift?"
Old Man Ma became interested and no longer cared about stabbing his old friend. He turned around and looked over.
The attention of the two elders of the Song family was also diverted.
When Mr. Qin saw it, he smiled and said, "Hurry up and take it out for them to see."
"okay."
Yi Chichi responded, and together with Qin Jiu, they opened the package and took out a jackfruit first.
The history of jackfruit cultivation on the island is very long, dating back to the late Qing Dynasty, but due to transportation constraints, both planting and production were limited and did not develop.
Only now that traffic conditions have begun to improve, sporadic sales have begun to occur outside the planting areas.
Jackfruit is a typical southern fruit, but many people don’t know it.
But the Song couple are well-informed people. As a native of the south who has never been abroad, Mr. Ma really doesn't know what jackfruit is.
"What the hell is this? Why is it so big?"
"jackfruit."
Old Mrs. Song smiled and continued, "I ate it when I was young..."
“Is this delicious?”
Grandpa Ma, who got excited as soon as he heard about eating, looked at the jackfruit with surprisingly burning eyes. He felt that this thing was delicious, otherwise Xiaoyi and the others would not have brought it from thousands of miles away.
"good to eat."
Yi Chichi nodded. Ever since the island started selling jackfruits, it has become a common fruit in the family, just like mangoes.
She likes to eat it, and Wen's mother likes to eat it too.
Wen Yi would also taste a few bites while they were eating.
It’s not clear whether he likes it or not. After all, he is now interested in all kinds of food. When he goes out for a walk and sees leaves, he can’t wait to taste the saltiness of them.
If you want to know his preferences, you have to wait until he grows up and can speak.
Therefore, Wen Yi’s preferences can be ignored.
Qin Jiu also loves to eat, he smiled and said, "How about killing one for you guys to try?"
Wen Yi immediately pointed at the jackfruit and screamed, his expression full of anxiety.
Everyone laughed and said, "It seems like we all want to eat one too, so let's kill one."
So, Yi Chichi opened a jackfruit.
Then, everyone sat together and ate and chatted.
"Uncle Ye is working today?"
